  1. Note: E 0 is the change in log10 cfu/mL after 24 h incubation in the control sample compared with the initial inoculum. Emax is the difference in effect between the greatest amount of growth (as seen for the growth control, E0) and the greatest amount of kill. EC50 is the Cmax/MIC value producing a 50 % reduction in bacterial counts from the initial inoculum, and N is the Hill coefficient that describes the steepness of the dose–response curve
